1 Obadijas parādīšana. Tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs par Edomu. Mēs esam vēsti dzirdējuši no Tā Kunga, un vēstnesis ir sūtīts starp pagāniem: ceļaties! Tad celsimies pret viņu karā.
Obadiah's vision. This is what the Lord says about the land of Edom. We have heard from the Lord that a messenger was sent to tell the nations: Get ready! Let's go to war against Edom!
2 Redzi, Es tevi esmu mazu darījis starp tiem pagāniem, tu esi ļoti nicināts.
I will make you insignificant among the nations. You will be totally despised.
3 Tava sirds lielība tevi pievīlusi; tu dzīvo klints alās, savos augstos dzīvokļos, un saki savā sirdī: kas mani nometīs pie zemes?
Your heart's pride has deceived you—you who live in a secure fortress of rock in the high mountains, saying to yourselves, “Who can ever bring us down?”
4 Jebšu tu celtos kā ērglis, un jebšu tu savu ligzdu taisītu starp zvaigznēm, taču Es tevi no turienes nometīšu, saka Tas Kungs.
But even though you soar like an eagle, even though you make your nest among the stars, I will bring you down from there, declares the Lord.
5 Kad zagļi vai laupītāji pie tevis naktī būtu nākuši, (ak, kā tu esi izdeldēts!) vai tie nebūtu zaguši savu tiesu? Kad vīna lasītāji pie tevis būtu nākuši, vai tie kādas vīna stīgas nebūtu atlicinājuši?
You will be completely destroyed! If thieves came to you, if robbers came at night, wouldn't they steal only what they wanted? If those who harvest grapes came to you, wouldn't they leave some behind?
6 Kā Ēsava (mantas) ir izmeklētas un viņa apslēptās lietas izvaicātas!
But how Esau will be plundered and their hidden treasures looted!
7 Visi tavi biedri tevi izdzen no savām robežām ārā, tavi draugi tevi pieviļ un pārvar; kas tavu maizi ēd, tie tevi ievaino. Saprašanas pie viņa nav.
All your allies will drive you out, past the borders of your land. Those who were at peace with you will deceive you, and conquer you. Those who ate with you have ambushed you. You don't understand a thing!
8 Vai tas nenotiks tai dienā, saka Tas Kungs, ka Es iznīcināšu tos gudros no Edoma un saprašanu no Ēsava kalniem?
On that day, declares the Lord, I will destroy the wise men of Edom—there will be no more wisdom in the mountains of Esau.
9 Tavi varenie, Tēman, baiļosies, lai ikviens no Ēsava kalniem top izdeldēts kaujā.
Teman, your fighting men will be terrified, so that everyone of the mountains of Esau will be cut down in the massacre.
10 Tā varas darba dēļ, ko tu savam brālim Jēkabam esi padarījis, kauns tevi apsegs, un tu tapsi izdeldēts mūžīgi.
Because of the violence you committed against your brothers, the descendants of Jacob, you will be totally ashamed of yourselves, and destroyed forever.
11 Tai dienā, kad tu viņam stāvēji pretī, tai dienā, kad naidnieki viņa spēku aizveda cietumā un svešinieki iegāja pa viņa vārtiem un meslus meta par Jeruzālemi, tad tu arīdzan biji kā viens no tiem.
On that day you stood aside, on that day strangers plundered their wealth and foreigners entered their gates, and divided up Jerusalem by casting lots—and you were like one of them.
12 Bet tev vairs ar prieku nebūs redzēt sava brāļa dienu, viņa nelaimes dienu, nedz līksmoties par Jūda bērniem viņu bēdu dienā, nedz lepoties ar savu muti bailības dienā.
You should not have gloated over your brother's day of disaster. You should not have rejoiced over the day of destruction of the sons of Judah. You should not have boasted over the day of their distress.
13 Neej pa Manu ļaužu vārtiem viņu nelaimes dienā, nedz skaties uz viņu ļaunumu viņu posta dienā, nedz izstiep (rokas) pēc viņu mantām viņu bēdu dienā.
You should not have marched through the city gates of my people on their day of disaster. You should not have gloated over them on the day of their disaster. You should not have looted their wealth on the day of their disaster.
14 Nestāvi uz ceļa jūtīm, viņu bēgļus izdeldēt, nedz nodod viņu atlikušos bēdu dienā.
You should not have stood at the crossroads, cutting down those trying to escape. You should not have handed over those who survived on the day of their distress.
15 Jo Tā Kunga diena ir klāt pār visiem pagāniem. Tā kā tu esi darījis, tāpat tev darīs, tavi darbi atgriezīsies uz tavu galvu.
For the day of the Lord is near for all nations. What you have done will be done to you; your actions will fall back on your own heads.
16 Jo kā jūs esiet dzēruši (Manu dusmu kausu) uz Mana svētā kalna, tā visi pagāni dzers bez mitēšanās, it tiešām tie dzers un plītēs, un būs tā kā tie tur nebūtu bijuši.
For as you drank on my holy mountain, so will all the nations continually drink, and swallow, and they shall be as if they never existed.
17 Bet uz Ciānas kalna būs izglābšana, un tas būs par svētumu, un tie no Jēkaba nama iemantos savas tiesas.
But on Mount Zion there will be a place of escape, a holy place, and the descendants of Jacob will reclaim their inheritance.
18 Un Jēkaba nams būs uguns, un Jāzepa nams liesma, un Ēsava nams būs par rugājiem, un tie pret tiem iedegsies un tos aprīs, tā ka Ēsava namam neviens neatliks, jo Tas Kungs to ir runājis.
The descendants of Jacob will become a fire, and the descendants of Joseph a flame, and they shall burn up the descendants of Esau like stubble, consuming them completely, so that there will be not a single survivor of the descendants of Esau. For the Lord has spoken.
19 Un tie no dienas vidus iemantos Ēsava kalnus, un kas ielejā dzīvo, iemantos Fīlistus, un tie iemantos Efraīma lauku un Samarijas lauku, un Benjamins Gileādu.
Those living in the Negev will occupy the mountains of Esau; those from the foothills of Judah will occupy the land of the Philistines, and possess the fields of Ephraim and Samaria; those from the tribe of Benjamin will occupy Gilead.
20 Un tie aizvestie no Israēla bērnu kara spēka iemantos to, kas Kanaāniešiem piederēja līdz Sareptai, un tie aizvestie no Jeruzālemes, kas ir Sefaradā, iemantos tās pilsētas pret dienvidiem.
The army of exiles of the people of Israel shall possess the land of the Canaanites as far as Zarephath, and the exiles of Jerusalem from Sepharad shall possess the cities of the Negev.
21 Un pestītāji celsies uz Ciānas kalna, tiesāt Ēsava kalnus, un valstība piederēs Tam Kungam.
Those who have been saved will go up Mount Zion and rule the mountains of Esau. And the kingdom shall be the Lord's.
